If you liked Tanoshii Muumin Ikka add

...then you might like Little Witch Academia (TV) add

Want some fun? These two works will guarantee it. Although Moomin is much more about the characters' daily lives and crazy adventures, Little Witch Academia has a bit of that too. Moomin isn't about witches, but there are witches too. Both have somewhat unique casts (Moomin more so. Little Witch Academia has some slightly more generic characters, but they're just a few).

If you liked Figure 17: Tsubasa & Hikaru add

...then you might like Flanders no Inu add

Both have completely different messages, but there's one thing in common: they're not just any a cute Slice of Life. Character development and more realism shine through in both (Figure 17 less so because it involves a bit of science fiction, but when it comes to the characters, it's very realistic).

If you liked Shouwa Ahozoushi Akanuke Ichiban! add

...then you might like Doteraman add

Basically the same thing: comedy with superheroes. Episode 11 of Doteraman also features a poster with Tanne and Yuka from Shouwa Ahozoushi Akanuke Ichiban. The main difference is that Shouwa Ahozoushi is much more exaggerated in its comedy.

If you liked Natsume Yuujinchou add

...then you might like Gegege no Kitarou (1968) add

Both are about yokais. The main difference is that Kitaro is a yokai who helps humans against other yokais, while Natsume helps more yokais by returning their sealed names.

If you liked Ranpou add

...then you might like Shouwa Ahozoushi Akanuke Ichiban! add

Insane comedy, great characters, very funny and entertaining. As well as the similar subject matter, the comedy is also very exaggerated, and Ranpou ends up being even more exaggerated than Shouwa Ahozoushi. The biggest difference is that Shouwa Ahozoushi is episodic and Ranpou is two stories in one episode. Ranpou is also extremely good animation.

If you liked Chou Kuse ni Narisou add

...then you might like Shouwa Ahozoushi Akanuke Ichiban! add

Senseless and exaggerated comedy. Chou Kuse ni Narisou is even more "Wtf" than Shouwa Ahozoushi, even though Shouwa Ahozoushi has a slightly more exaggerated comedy. But in the end, whenever I think of something similar to Chou Kuse ni Narisou, I remember the horse anime. Another thing is that both the protagonist of Chou Kuse ni Narisou and Yuka of Shouwa Ahozoushi, both fight. One of the only differences is that Chou Kuse ni Narisou is an anime that involves idols and Shouwa Ahozoushi "Super Heros" (it's not like Tanne is actually one, especially since the title of the anime is literally "The Most Sophisticated Idiot of the Era Shouwa".

If you liked Sketchbook: Full Color's add

...then you might like Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou add

Calm, just calm with few conflicts, almost impossible to go wrong. While Shoujo Shuumatsu is the daily life of two little girls surviving in the World, Sketchbook is literally episodes where almost nothing happens and is extremely relaxing. Cute girls with a relaxing vibe. Two works to watch without worry because not much happens. Both also have good comedy. Maybe anime should be that, not trying to be too much and failing miserably, but rather having a few things happen and getting basically everything it does right.

If you liked Naruto: Shippuuden add

...then you might like Kemono no Souja Erin add

Both anime have a lot of flashbacks (seriously, it's exaggerated) and Kaguya's part of the story is very similar to Erin's aesthetic of taking place in ancient times. This recommendation is also a bit ironic, but it makes sense.

If you liked Alps no Shoujo Heidi add

...then you might like Kemono no Souja Erin add

Firstly, I wanted to make a more complete recommendation, but that would be a spoiler for Erin. Heidi and Erin (to some extent) are literally very similar, and I don't doubt that the author of Erin was inspired by Heidi for this, as it is a classic. Let's go: Everyday life is often relaxing with the child protagonists, in a certain part of the story both protagonists go to school, they take care of animals... I wanted to say more, which would complement a lot in how similar they both are, but that would be a spoiler from Erin.

If you liked Shinreigari add

...then you might like Shinsekai yori add

I don't remember much about Shinreigari, but both Shinsekai Yori and Shinreigari have a very similar slow pace in their atmospheres, and these two anime are kind of strange - I remember I had a very strange experience watching Shinreigari.

If you liked Kidou Senshi Zeta Gundam add

...then you might like Densetsu Kyojin Ideon add

The two are similar in many ways, and it's by the same author. There's also the fact that they both end somewhat abruptly, even though Zeta Gundam ended more properly and Ideon ended his story only in the movie which is epic. Both series aren't afraid to kill characters, that's a positive point. Even though it wasn't bad, I found Zeta's ending to be a little weak compared to Ideon's sudden series ending.

If you liked Figure 17: Tsubasa & Hikaru add

...then you might like Tanoshii Muumin Ikka add

Relaxing Slice of Life with great character relationships. As much as Figure 17 has a focus on the development of the protagonist and Moomin is an anime that focuses on just being fun, both deal a lot with the relationships that the characters have in their day-to-day lives.

If you liked Haibane Renmei add

...then you might like Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou add

Both do not basically explain anything in the world and are much more in the daily life of the characters and their relationships and every once in a while there is something more reflective like Haibane ep 5 and Shoujo Shuumatsu ep 9. I think Shoujo Shuuumatsu is better than Haibane.

If you liked Tanoshii Muumin Ikka add

...then you might like Shoujo Shuumatsu Ryokou add

Relaxing to watch, with good characters and a "mysterious" world. It also has good comedy. Both also have non-standard character designs, which is great.

If you liked Bokusatsu Tenshi Dokuro-chan add

...then you might like DNA² add

In both anime there is a girl who travels back in time to stop the protagonist from doing something to women that will affect the whole world.

If you liked Shouwa Ahozoushi Akanuke Ichiban! add

...then you might like Chuubyou Gekihatsu Boy add

While Chuubyou Gekihatsu Boy has characters pretending to be superheroes, in Shouwa Ahozoushi the protagonist is one, but very dubious. Both anime with a beastly comedy idiot around superheroes.

If you liked Touch add

...then you might like Nine: Original-ban add

Both works by the same author. Baseball and romance is the base as usual. I just think Nine is better, I think Touch is a bad anime.

If you liked NHK ni Youkoso! add

...then you might like Sayonara Zetsubou Sensei add

They deal with serious themes in a comical way. It's kind of obvious because of the "Zetsubou" (Despair) in the title, but both have this feeling of despair.

If you liked Mahou no Stage Fancy Lala add

...then you might like Mahou no Idol Pastel Yumi add

Mahou Shoujo episodic and fun with both anime that have a protagonist who makes magic from drawings. Pastel Yumi is more relaxed, Fancy Lala has more serious episodes and a beautiful message at the end.

If you liked Rokudenashi Blues add

...then you might like Ogami Matsugorou add

Delinquents who fight other gangs.

If you liked Arisa☆Good Luck add

...then you might like Kill la Kill add

Clothes that give superpowers

If you liked Kamichu! add

...then you might like Natsume Yuujinchou add

Episodic SoL with a protagonist having to deal with supernatural things.

If you liked Flanders no Inu add

...then you might like Momoko, Kaeru no Uta ga Kikoeru yo. add

Realistic and sad drama. Both with unexpected endings.

If you liked Mahou no Stage Fancy Lala add

...then you might like Uta∽Kata add

Apart from the fact that, like most Mahou Shoujo are episodic, there is something very similar between these two anime: Both show that it was not just the protagonist who gained magical powers, but also male characters who have already gone through this.

If you liked Tanoshii Muumin Ikka add

...then you might like Alps no Shoujo Heidi add

Fun Iyashikei with very cheerful and charismatic characters. In addition to Moomin taking place much more in spring, autumn and summer, there are also episodes in winter, which reminded me of Heidi. Of course, both are part of my favorite anime.

If you liked Papa to Odorou add

...then you might like Shouwa Ahozoushi Akanuke Ichiban! add

Insanely wacky comedy with "Wtf" stuff happening. Papa to Odorou is more exaggerated and its comedy is dark humor, but it is similar to Shouwa Ahozoushi.

If you liked Dr. Slump add

...then you might like Shouwa Ahozoushi Akanuke Ichiban! add

Good nonsense comedy with crazy things happening all the time.

If you liked Figure 17: Tsubasa & Hikaru add

...then you might like Stand By Me Doraemon add

Both deal with dependency. Nobita relies heavily on Doraemon and Hikaru's Tsubasa.

If you liked Tenshi no Tamago add

...then you might like Totsukuni no Shoujo (2022) add

The story of both starts from nothing and takes you nowhere, in addition to not concluding anything, not explaining anything, not telling anything. They are visually similar. And both are very bad. If you hated one, you will also hate the other, because neither of these two anime is any good.

If you liked Dr. Slump: Arale-chan add

...then you might like Magical★Taruruuto-kun Movie add

I much prefer Dr. Slump than this Taruruuto-kun movie, as much as their comedy is similar. If someone liked the comedy of one, they might like the comedy of the others, although for me Taruruuto-kun wasn't as funny as Dr. Slump.
